course there would necessarily be petty
campaign lies, but they would affect the
senator Just as the throwing OF pebbles
would affect the Washington monument
Senator Blair would, think, make the
strongest kind OF second in this ticket.
In the first place, he is from the east Then
his strength is of peculiar kind which
would swell the Republican vote in doubt

temperance record would be worth thou

state alone where, among temperance
people, he is looked upon as a
sort OF apostle No one doubts
the sincerity of the man or attributes his
profession OF temperance principles to a
desire for political gain. He is known to
be opposed to rum on priuciple, but he is
one OF those who believe that the liquor
traffic can be regulated better by the Re.
publican party than by any third party
organization. He does not see the ex.
pediency OF breaking up the grand
old party, which has taken the lead
In every species of progress and re.
form during the past thirty years, in order
TO advance prohibitory plans of more than
doubtful feasibility. With the conservative
temperance people his name is n tower Of
strength, and there are enongh there In the
very quarters where their votes are needed,
to swell the Republican vote to such pro.
portions as would clear away all doubts Of
success In 1888.
Another great element OF strength In the
senator is the favor with which the south
looks upon his efforts to promote education

our ticket who would represent some idea

gain two or perhaps three states next

favor of the Blair educational bill. 1t is
likely to 90 Republican anyhow In lSSs, but
with Senator Blair on the ticket assurance
would be rendered doubly sure. The same

date for 1883. 1t is claimed that the two
senators would form peculiarly strong
combination on account of the variety of
causes to which their prominence is due.
A leading western senator, who would not
allow his name to be USED In this connec
tion, for obvious reasons, spoke of the
ticket with enthusiasm In conversation with
q REPUBLICAN man.
"Senator sherman" said he, "has the
confidence of the business men In every
section of the country In greater degree
than any other man In public life. His wise
and conservative policy AS Secretary of the
Treasury and his sOundness Oh all the
important questions which have engaged
the attention of Congress In the last
twenty years mark him as an absolutely
safe man to put in the white house
even II he did not possess any brilliant
qualities OF mind. In one particular he Is
unique. Although western man, aud OF
course deeply interested in the progress OF
his section aud alive its peculiar interests,
he is as well liked by the great financial
movers of New York and the fac
tory men of Massachusetts, as he is
by the farming element of the
west, You will not find that the senator's
name is very generally lauded by the poll-
| ticians on account Of his personal popular
| ity, for he does not travel on his "magnet-
ism,n so to speak; but go north, east,
south, or west and you will hear people say;
"Sherman is safe man. The business in
terests of the country can rely on him.

praise that could be bestowed on
a statesman. Personal magnetism, bril-
liancy on the stump, and solidnes.
with boys are all very well In their way
but business men think more Of sound
principles conservatism, and long legis
lative experience. Senator sherman Is one
of the very few statesmen who have not
in the course of long public career, gon,
wrong on some important Question--henc,
the widespread confidence he inspires liz
could certainly carry New York, which il
likely to be again the pivotal state in 1883
and II is more than probable that Con
necticut, Indiana, and New Jersey woulC
go with him. The Republican cam
paign with Senator Sherman as the stand

party have never needed any defense, anC
